      x86: Use PCI method for enabling AMD extended config space before MSR method · 24d9b70b
      Jan Beulich authored
      While both methods should work equivalently well for the native
      case, the Xen Dom0 case can't reliably work with the MSR one,
      since there's no guarantee that the virtual CPUs it has
      available fully cover all necessary physical ones.
      
      As per the suggestion of Robert Richter the patch only adds the
      PCI method, but leaves the MSR one as a fallback to cover new
      systems the PCI IDs of which may not have got added to the code
      base yet.
      
      The only change in v2 is the breaking out of the new CPI
      initialization method into a separate function, as requested by
      Ingo.

      x86: tsc: Prevent delayed init if initial tsc calibration failed · 29fe359c
      Thomas Gleixner authored
      commit a8760eca (x86: Check tsc available/disabled in the delayed init
      function) missed to prevent the setup of the delayed init function in
      case the initial tsc calibration failed. This results in the same
      divide by zero bug as we have seen without the tsc disabled check.
      
      Skip the delayed work setup when tsc_khz (the initial calibration
      value) is 0.

      perf tools: Fix perf_event.h header usage · d030260a
      Stephane Eranian authored
      This patch fixes the usage of the perf_event.h header file
      between command modules and the supporting code in util.
      
      It is necessary to ensure that ALL files use the SAME
      perf_event.h header from the kernel source tree.
      
      There were a couple of #include <linux/perf_event.h> mixed
      with #include "../../perf_event.h".
      
      This caused issues on some distros because of mismatch
      in the layout of struct perf_event_attr. That eventually
      led perf stat to segfault.

      x86: Avoid calling arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() at the same time · 554ec063
      Dongdong Deng authored
      The spin_lock_debug/rcu_cpu_stall detector uses
      trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() to dump cpu backtrace.
      Therefore it is possible that trigger_all_cpu_backtrace()
      could be called at the same time on different CPUs, which
      triggers and 'unknown reason NMI' warning. The following case
      illustrates the problem:
      
            CPU1                    CPU2                     ...   CPU N
                             trigger_all_cpu_backtrace()
                             set "backtrace_mask" to cpu mask
                                     |
      generate NMI interrupts  generate NMI interrupts       ...
          \                          |                               /
           \                         |                              /
      
      The "backtrace_mask" will be cleaned by the first NMI interrupt
      at nmi_watchdog_tick(), then the following NMI interrupts
      generated by other cpus's arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() will
      be taken as unknown reason NMI interrupts.
      
      This patch uses a test_and_set to avoid the problem, and stop
      the arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() from calling to avoid
      dumping a double cpu backtrace info when there is already a
      trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() in progress.
